About Me

I like France. To me, everything associated with this country is très chic--the food, wine, people, art, architecture, fashion, literature...the list could go on forever! I happen to have a French husband, who I married in 2011. Quickly after we married came baby, two cats, house, car and life balancing it all. This blog is devoted to our adventures tackling immigration, raising a bilingual child, traveling, and a little bit of everything else.
